Relevant Information:

This species is often found with the
so-called Corydoras sp. "Super
arcuatus"(CW036) and is similar looking to C.
narcissus but has a shorter and squatter body. There is also another
similar form from Brazil. Aquarium Care: As this
is one of the longer snouted species it will be well suited to
most community tanks. A well planted tank with a soft substrate
such as sand so they can bury their snouts while searching out
food. Diet: Readily accepts a mixed and varied
diet which includes granular foods, tablet food, frozen bloodworm
and good quality flake to name but a few.
